• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I think this is where a lot of interest came in this Bill. This one deals with exemptions. First of all, I want to ask you to support this amendment because when we support, the first thing it will do is that it will exempt maize seeds which we use for planting, and which actually is good for the farmers. view
• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Number two is that there is the issue of drugs. The Bill as it was, was not exempting medicaments and I think this is what was causing a lot of problems. We sat down with my Committee and consulted the other stakeholders, including the Treasury, Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) and others, and agreed that we need to exempt medicines and the list is here. It is a very long list. I know that Dr. Nyikal will be bringing an additional list which I will respond to at that stage; this is basically to exempt medicaments which are listed here. Hon. ... view

• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. (Ms.) Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I think it means everything. This is because VAT is not levied on the unga you get from the posho mill. It is only flour that is processed. This is processed unga . view
• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, if you look at the First Schedule, you will see Item Nos.28 and 29. Everything else is okay except No.30, which I want to withdraw. Item No.30 is actually a duplication of what is in item No.29. I withdraw Item No.30 to make the Bill cleaner; No. 30 is covered under Item No.29. view

• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, this should not have been typed. I am saying that Item No.30 is a repetition of Item No.29. I am making the Bill to be clean because it has already been captured under Item No.29. view
• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I wish to say that I support the amendment by Dr. Nyikal because we had a list but it was not exhaustive. I want to say it is very good to have such professionals in the House. I want to support what he has proposed because our intention was really medicine; all the medical chemists are on the list. Maybe, we missed it by some reason, but I want to say that I support that amendment that we move together. view
• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I want to say that hon. Tonui’s intentions are very good but unfortunately he is trying to exempt something else and not the sugar that we know. He has good intentions but I think maybe there was a problem in this. In fact, I had advised him earlier that he can do a further amendment so that it is really sugar but this one is a different kind of sugar. I appreciate his wishes but unfortunately we will be actually hurting the sugar industry if his amendment passes. view
